Profitability and efficiency are the key to success as farmers continue to navigate a sinking commodities market, and Alltech is here to help: The company will showcase its latest research and innovative technologies to help farmers become more profitable at EuroTier, held Nov. 15–18, 2016, in Hanover, Germany.

Alltech will highlight their latest innovative technologies and scientifically proven programs, each designed to help farmers achieve consistent performance and maximize profitability and efficiency.

The Alltech Feed Efficiency program will be showcased at EuroTier, and producers will be able to learn more about Alltech technologies and how they work in synergy with the animal’s own digestive system to provide nutrients to support digestion.

“Supporting the animal’s digestive system can help maximise nutrient release and reduce the overall costs of feed,” said Dr. Jules Taylor-Pickard, European business director for Alltech.

The Alltech Protein Management program, also to be featured, helps producers to avoid excess dietary protein, which potentially wastes energy sources that could otherwise be used for production.

“The Alltech Protein Management program makes your feed work harder so your animals don’t have to,” said Taylor-Pickard. “It provides a high quality source of protein for animals, giving them the nutrients they need to produce at their peak.”

Mycotoxins, otherwise known as the hidden thieves in animal production, are a concern for every producer. Mycotoxins are natural substances produced by moulds. All natural materials and many man-made ones are subject to contamination by moulds and under favourable environmental conditions, when temperature and moisture are conducive; these fungi proliferate and may produce mycotoxins. As mycotoxins are now regular players in feed quality and animal safety worldwide, the need for a complete program to deal with mycotoxins proactively, rather than reactively, is more important than ever. The Alltech Mycotoxin Management program allows farmers to understand risk, minimise mycotoxin effects and improve animal profitability.
